EKCLuJiV'E CL±NItXE CALLS FOR BLACK FURRED BLACK CLOTH COATS

BLACK on black, thut is the latest edict for the fashionnlily furred coat. Notwithstanding the mood of the inode for high color, black cloth trimmed with black fur strikes a definite mile in lhe renlin of coats. To be sure various browns are highlighted in cloaks and deep wine reds are particularly F stressed, hut even so with an exclusive clientele, black is the big feature. True, too, that often the black coat is furred in a showy contrasting pelt, but the very latest word from I’aris declares that luxury of the moment finds its highest interpretation in the black coat of fabric de luxe, which is lavished with it black fur of distinction. Favorite materials for the allblack coat are broadcloth, cashmere, suede and several other new velvety woolens which are richly beautiful in appearance. Furs which unite with these ele-i gnnt cloakings to perfect the black-on-black theme Include wolf, fox. caracul, broadtail, Russian lamb and other high-class skins. For the elegant model in the picture sumptuous wolf unstintingly lends its glossy blackness to the suede cloth it trims with flattering results. Furs of the character of the long-haired variety noted in this illustration meet smart competition of supple thin pelts of the broadtail, Persian lamb, caracul and like variety. There is this advantage about the flat furs, they lend themselves so gracefully to intriguing and unusual treatments. Fashion's latest caprice

-So . 7* is to manipulate thin furs in a fabric way. That is, the fur, if it is supple enough, is tied Into soft bows, or it is formed into tailored bows, or made into swagger triangle kerchief collars, or perhaps a long throw-scarf. Insets anil appliques are also among newest unique Jur treatments. Fur cuffs and the collar vie with hemlines in point of elaboration and novelty. Cuffs especially play their part in most fantastic ways. Clever, snug lints of these daintier furs add a note of extreme interest, and tiny matcliing muffs supply the final note of chic.
